Beautiful Feet

July 25th, 2005

I've looked at the mountains many times
And been captivated by their beauty.
They stand majestic over all of creation,
Looking down, casting a shadow on the land.

My hearts dream would be to climb
And hang on the very top, shouting out -
Shouting out God's glory and praise to the world.
No doubt my feet would be dirty and pained,

But You've called them beautiful! These feet,
They've carried me halfway around the world for You.
They've walked through mud, dirt, filth, water,
Anything You've placed before them.

But the Message empowers the body
And any pain I feel is only the aching in my heart
Of wanting to climb that grandiose mountain.
"How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news."
